Answer:

25.4%

Explanation:

Portfolio standard deviation =  Proportion in the risky asset X Standard deviation of risky asset

                                               28 = 37x

Solving for x derives:-

                                         28/37  = x

Expected return of the portfolio =  14%( 1- (28/37)) + 29%(28/37)

                                                     = 25.4%

Therefore, the expected return on the portfolio is 25.4%.

ella [17]

Answer:

c. $500,000.

Explanation:

Market Corporation has a basis in the land of $500,000.

We are told in the question that ''Market Corporation completely liquidates Subsidiary​ Corporation, receiving land with a​ $400,000 adjusted basis and a​ $500,000 Fair Market Value''

In the event of liquidation the value of an asset is no longer its carrying amount or book value but rather the amount at which the asset can be disposed which is the fair market value.

Beginning inventory, purchases, and sales for Product XCX are as follows:
9966 [12]

Answer:

Cost of merchandise sold = $483 , Closing stock = $227

Explanation:

Perpetual inventory system includes updates done, when sale or purchase transaction happens

Opening Stock = 26 units (price 15). Value = 26 x 15 = 390

Sale = 13 units, price 15. So, sales cost value =  13 x 15 = 195  

Purchase = 20 units (price 16). Value = 20 x 16 = 320

Sale = 18 units, price 16. So, sales cost value = 18 x 16 = 288

Total sales cost value, or cost of merchandise sold = 195 + 288 = 483

Closing stock = Opening stock + purchase - sales cost

= 390 + 320 - 483

= $227

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

No, Elevators, Inc. has not broken the law because payment was made in United States currency.

Explanation:

It operates a substantial business abroad for high-end luxury hotels. It authorized a project manager to "charge" a government official a charge of 500 for speeding up the building permit process. so

  • Under the law, it is illegal to bribe foreign officials to get business. But there is an exception to "facilitation payments", also known as grease payments made to speed up general government functions.
  • Flexible payments can be used to persuade government officials to perform work that is already being done. Although many have argued that such payments are important for their operations in some areas, such as Asia and Africa, the difference between facility payment and bribery remains unclear.
